El Zarape Mexican Food Restaurant offers a variety of dishes, with customers praising the pechugas empanizadas and chips and salsa. The food is authentic and flavorful, with large portions that satisfy. Customers often mention the fresh toppings and the traditional Mexican flavor that is hard to find elsewhere, creating a unique experience. The service is generally quick, friendly, and attentive, with staff providing refills promptly and offering different sauces, such as red or green, to enhance the meals. The ambiance reflects a typical Mexican restaurant, adding to the authentic atmosphere. While the food receives positive comments, some have noted that the chicken in the fajitas could be more tender and that the homemade tortillas were not always up to expectations. The restaurant’s cleanliness, especially in the bathrooms, and its location have been criticized. Prices are moderate, and parking can be limited. The restaurant tends to be less busy on weekends, making it a convenient option for lunch or casual dining. Overall, customers have mixed but mostly positive experiences at El Zarape.
